I'm about to start a project re-ripping all of my CDs as *.aiff files sorted by artist and album. I do not want to manually type and create each folder as I rip them so I'd like to write a script to handle that busy work.

Here's the problem: I've yet to find a way to extract the artist and album information from Itunes after it queries Gracenote. Does anybody have any means to do this?

I tried with Automator and didn't have any luck. I also looked into a cli interface for iTunes, but the script appeared to be borked with the current version of iTunes.

I'd appreciate any insight/tips.
